Hot take? I used to hate voicing this opinion because it gets a lot of flack in our industry but after talking to my attorney who is also my bessstie💕 it clicked and I realized this wasn’t an outlandish thought to have - my primary job isn’t protecting feelings but educating the public and protecting my clients best interests🙌
You be the judge- but in a court of law I wouldn’t want an attorney representing both sides of a case. Likewise, I wouldn’t want a Realtor representing both sides where hundreds of thousands of dollars are being negotiated!
What are your thoughts? I have represented both sides but I’m picky about it (for instance, I will only do it if the Buyer and Seller have already come to terms on the price and negotiating terms, if the property is off market with a non-negotiable set price, if a Buyer I have a previously solid relationship with wants to put an offer in on my listing, or something similar to these terms- I don’t like taking on random sign callers or unrepresented buyers!)
